DeSantis is lying because he's losing
Dec. 12, 2023 6:00 am
Ron DeSantis’ false claims about Nikki Haley reek of desperation. He's plummeting in the polls, so he's taking Nikki's words out of context to smear her as a supporter of Hillary Clinton.
This couldn't be further from the truth. Nikki is not a supporter of Hillary and has never agreed with a single one of her policies. Nikki is a true conservative who's bucked the establishment, cut taxes, and made America strong on the world stage.
Ron DeSantis' blatant lies were deemed by the Washington Post as a "falsehood" and his ad received four Pinocchios for its dishonesty. Iowans can see past De Santis' lying game and that's why Nikki continues to rise in the polls and gain key endorsements across the Hawkeye State.
I have not been as excited for a presidential candidate since Ronald Reagan ran in 1980.
Please join me in voting for Nikki Haley at the Iowa caucuses.
